The wildfire hazard continues to be HIGH for the Lac La Biche forest area. This will continue until we get a weather change and some precipitation.
In the meantime, we have 7 crews and 5 helicopters on hand to action any new wildfires.
You need a permit for any burning other than a campfire. Permits are free and available through your local fire center. Even if you have a permit, there is no burning allowed when winds are stronger than 15 km/hr.
Thanks for doing your part to prevent wildfire.
